Author Gregory Shaw is a pschologist and educator whose study of the great questions of spiritual philosophy has been in progress for more than forty years. He studied folklore and mythology as an undergraduate at Harvard College, where he took a degree in psychology and became familiar with the great spiritual traditions of the world.
A serious reader, he has explored as a layman the literature of many philosophical and scientific disciplines: the mythological traditions of primitive peoples; Gnostic Christianity; Buddhism; Taoism; the Hindu tradition; Native American traditional stories; cosmology; particle physics and the nature of matter; A Course in Miracles. Recent interests include mediation and arbitration, the "Power of Now" philosophy of Eckhart Tolle, and The Work of Byron Katie.
He lives with his wife, Christy, at the foot of Mount Ben Lomond in Utah. They dedicate a sizeable chunk of their lives to recreation: reading, traveling, flat-water kayaking, snorkeling, hiking in the desert, and riding motorcycles. Greg holds a master's degree in education from Weber State University and currently works as a counselor at a school in a youth correctional institution.
